President Trump on Monday said that he is actually considering controlling the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz with tolls for shipping once Iran is defeated.
President Trump plans to launch a massive attack on Iran’s civilian infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and energy if they do not make a deal by tomorrow. During the press conference, Trump threatened that “every bridge in Iran will be decimated by 12 o’clock tomorrow night,” and “every power plant in Iran will be out of business, burning, exploding and never to be used again.”
During a press conference on Monday, Trump was asked if he would end the conflict while allowing Iran to continue charging tolls to oil tankers for safe passage through the Strait. But Trump thought the reporter was asking if he would be charging tolls for oil shipping.
“What about us charging tolls?” Trump asked after the reporter clarified he was referring to Iran.
“I’d rather do that than let them have them, right? Why shouldn’t we?” he continued, before declaring, “We’re the winner. We won!” Trump then revealed that the US already has a “concept where we’ll charge tolls.”
“Your question would have been more accurate if you said us,” Trump said.
